Fiona, at age 3, made the discovery while naked in her Grey Lynn backyard that she breathes paint rather than air. Her work is often personal, a tool of discovery and expression in exploring herself and the world around her. Her love of depth and detail seeks to reveal the hidden and ignored. Her other areas of interest include analyzing dreams, gazing into space, talking with people (and trees), writing, absorbing music, and creating her own worlds - many of which are evident in her work.
